Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 1/2 cups peeled, chopped apples (about 3 large apples)
• 1/2 cup salted butter
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for the glaze)

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube or Bundt pan.
2. Whisk the oil, granulated sugar, eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla in a large bowl until smooth and slightly thickened.
3. Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a separate bowl, then stir the dry ingredients into the egg mixture just until no streaks of flour remain.
4. Fold in the chopped apples. The batter will be very thick.
5. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
6. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes.
7. Meanwhile, make the glaze: melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, stir in the brown sugar and cream, and bring to a gentle boil. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and stir in the remaining teaspoon of vanilla.
8. Turn the warm cake out onto a serving plate and slowly pour the hot glaze over the top, letting it run down the sides.
9. Let the glaze set for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
